ELECTRIC.IE • The Magazine & Website for the Irish Electrical Industry • 13 Precision Cables Winners all around on the Precision Cables roadshow! Visiting 20 electrical wholesalers across the IEBG network in the process (across a two month period) was a worthwhile effort according to Martin Smyth, sales executive at Precision. “It’s been really great to reconnect with wholesalers in person, many of whom we had only been in touch via phone over the Covid period. We felt it was important to both strengthen these relationships and meet tradesmen and women to answer their technical questions in regard to our product lines.” Visitors to the Precision stand were given expert advice on the range of cables and accessories that Precision provides while also being able to enter a fantastic free prize draw before they left. ‒Precision Cables, Ireland’s leading cable solutions company, recently held a nationwide roadshow to showcase their extensive product range to trade professionals. “It’s a win-win for us, we get a unique opportunity to connect with customers who can learn more about the specifications of our products and enter a great competition. So all in all it’s a great use of their time with us.” The roadshow was such a success that the next natural option for Precision was to roll out a second phase of the roadshow. “The feedback was so positive from wholesalers and the trade in general that we felt that an Autumn Roadshow to include the Fegime network of wholesalers was a priority. “ according to Martin. The Precision Cables Fegime roadshow will continue throughout November so keep an for a chance to meet the Precision Team at a wholesalers near you. “You could also be in with a chance to win one of 3 Flatscreen TV’s so it’s well worth popping by for a chat”. said Martin.
